There is a good representation of Makerspace members in the meetup, but it's a good mix of folks, including some who drive from as far away as Houston. We have diverse interests and there's usually a good mix of retrocomputers to talk about and demonstrate. Members are invited to bring something for show-and-tell, or just to stop by and chew the fat. We are scheduling a summer meetup, and so far the best dates are looking like July 15 or July 29. July 22 is excluded because that conflicts with KansasFest. I invite you all to join. It's not necessary to join the meetup, but it helps to join and RSVP, for pizza planning purposes.","","👍 (1)" "308973498871578634","dave01972","2017-05-02T10:49:35.4450000-05:00","https://www.meetup.com/North-Dallas-Area-Retro-Computing/","","" "189645236908064768","themitch22","2017-05-03T01:28:32.1320000-05:00","Is the 8bitguy going to be there?","","" "309079425679360000","raymond011905","2017-05-03T01:43:59.0090000-05:00","he was at my house last week. look for a future video with a suitcase sized cp/m portable. 😃","","😃 (1)" "309079425679360000","raymond011905","2017-05-03T01:45:35.5970000-05:00","i was the guy in his c128 video that was using the logic probe to troubleshoot and repair it","","" "207961619538378762","denzuko","2017-05-03T17:31:19.6300000-05:00","I find it interesting/ironic he did a c128 video the same week we got c128 books and materials in the museum.","","" "194641296529424386","canibalcrab","2017-05-04T18:42:27.4670000-05:00","I'm in search of 4-5 floppy disks","","" "194641296529424386","canibalcrab","2017-05-04T18:42:37.0250000-05:00","Preferably unmarked","","" "309079425679360000","raymond011905","2017-05-04T18:43:45.1480000-05:00","8""? 5.25? 3.5?

Seeing if they are open to the idea is wort investigating. Some threshold issues: Who is going to pay for the vending machine? How is that cost going to be recovered or not? Where will it be located? Will just one vendor be able to stock in it? Who is responsible for any shrinkage. Also, I would expect that Tanners would charge a little more for the items as it now costs more to stock it: Labor/time to come over and refill machine, effort to get paid with that added delay. We've been talking with Fastenal about having them stock some of their vending machines. But the cost is fairly high with the guarantee. I know this discussion is about parts not food, however this may be relevant as they are the big reasons we have Parks is: • No minimum sales guarantee. DMS owes nothing to parks but space and electricity. • No shrinkage guarantee, which includes spoilage, which is important where fresh food is concerned. • No Term/contract Period, either Parks or DMS can terminate whenever they want. We aren’t forced to keep a company we aren’t happy with. • No anti-compete clauses - we can sell anything we want to compete with them or make whatever we want.","","😀 (2)" "432401820569042944","kevpat","2018-04-15T00:00:57.3030000-05:00","There's an electronics meeting on space expansion tomorrow @4pm in purple.

I'm thinking we simply say that you have to use at least one of those four sensors. And you can add whatever you want. Then we can use basically the same criteria as the Brother hackathon: originality, usefulness/market value, and completeness. They also had one about design aethetics that I want to exclude. I don't think people winning by having more money will be an issue, since money can't get you a more original, useful, or complete idea. What I'm pretty set on is that we're going to give contestants a lot of time, at least a month of advance notice and have them produce a 3 minute video and then just have one or two days (depending on funding) to go through the videos and have some judges rank them. I think it might be good to have some categories for prizes, like maybe we have a prize and award for the best project that uses the temperature and humidity, or a prize for a project that uses all four sensors, something like that.","","" "564831190390145025","denzukoatwork2317","2019-10-03T11:47:03.9390000-05:00","Have we even remotely picked a theme?","","" "564831190390145025","denzukoatwork2317","2019-10-03T11:47:52.2940000-05:00","maybe something eco or civic or solves an issue that the makerspace has run into (not fixing things at the space just as a model for a theme)?","","" "564831190390145025","denzukoatwork2317","2019-10-03T11:48:57.0910000-05:00","maybe even something robotic?","","" "400392357230673920","james_david_vance","2019-10-03T11:56:36.7740000-05:00","To be clear, we don't have to pick a theme.

(can be turned into an CICD job or an on demand thing with user signup for automation) 2. use a stack like https://github.com/Dallas-Makerspace/datagrid/blob/master/docker-compose.yml and point the app templates end point config to something like: https://github.com/Dallas-Makerspace/software-library 3. Deploy something like killbill.io with ldap integration as one's billing, accounting, and user management. http://killbill.io/blog/having-fun-with-docker-stripe-and-kill-bill-v2/ There's a wide range of versatility in this and one also gets a means to tie in things like sematext/tick stack, function-as-a-service, autoscaling, auto updates, and more.

I think it is a bad precedent to talk about them from a context of whether it is ""required."" By that argument nearly any committee could be turned into a lecture series, which defeats the purpose of the space. The criterion shouldn't be, ""is it required?"" It should be, ""is it enriching?"" Does it help that committee educate others on its topic? (This is related to the problem of handing things to an ""education"" committee - *all* our themed committees are supposed to be educational, as that is our purpose per our charter.) And I think it is difficult to argue that a good many things within computing require hands-on learning to learn best.

It's going to be an opportunity for me to learn about Apple's new App Clips (Android already has a similar thing called Instant Apps) https://developer.apple.com/app-clips/ I'm thinking that the computer will be hooked up to a display and there will be a sign with instructions explaining that you can send commands to the computer and providing a few suggested commands. We could also build our own scripts that do interesting, engaging things. There will then be a QR code for the maker to download the app. In terms of how the commands get sent to the computer, I think we can use Google Cloud Firestore. We can just have one document that has a field called latestCommand. We could have an application running on a Raspberry Pi that listens to changes in this document, and when the latestCommand field changes, it could send that command to the machine, unless we can have an app that runs on the machine itself, which would be cool. We should probably have a list of commands that are acceptable, that way you don't get people deleting files and stuff. If those files are already password protected though, and the app is running on the Raspberry Pi, it might be safe to let people do any command. Might be cool to hook up a speaker to the machine to support the bell command. Anyone have any ideas or advice for this?

Also, I'm hoping I can just set up a raspberry Pi and leave it at the space as opposed to my home network so that the app clip can have less downtime if I move or if I lose power and the space does not lose power.

That way Logistics could facilitate people making changes or completely deleting the whole thing if/when the time comes.

That means finalists, sponsors, exhibitors, hackathon teams, etc. The purpose is to enlist your help promoting attendance to our event this Thursday and/or to attend yourselves if you are not already. To make it easier we’ve attached a promo graphic and link which includes a FREE access promo code. This link automatically applies that code when clicked. https://bit.ly/3kOiTo0 CodeLaunch has always been an event which is produced collectively by everyone involved. If you are a CodeLaunch supporter, and you have North Texas reach, it is critically important we reach as many possible potential attendees. We have all waged a difficult battle this year and producing CodeLaunch has been one for us. We have 50 exhibitors and about 20 startups including the 5 finalists who come from 3 different states and Russia and South Korea! It will be a shame if attendance is off this year. Please share this on your personal social media, organizational social media, with other social media influencers, person-to-person emails or even send the graphic via SMS TXT to people who might like to attend. It will be a safe and fun event and everyone is going to follow the safety guidelines. Thank you and I hope to see you Thursday. Cheers, Jason W.
